Why when I use the WOL feature to wake my PC (which has the networks Internet connection) from standby does the internet connection only stay open for a short period of time (2-3mins) before I can no longer connect to the internet. When the connection closes I need to physically wake the internet computer before I can carry on working Cheers Chris
